I am finished painting my Bobamaker Jango lid, now I'm just curious if the grey primer he sent it to me in is acceptable to RnB or do I need to sand again? It feels fairly smooth but I'm noticed that when you sand with 600 grit it's a glass smooth finish, then you prime again and there are some rough spots. At what point do you call it enough?

I'd sand the primer it came in. Reprime it, which means you'll need to resand it. I'd go finer and wet sand it with at least 1000. I finished with 2000 on mine. The better you sand the better your R&B will turn out.

Well I've been looking at the ref pics a lot and going through old threads about this topic. I've seen some near glass finishes that had to be dulled up a little to achieve the proper screen look. I think 600 is good for this and I'll post pics of the finished helmet in a day or so
